C drive space
My C drive is around 33 GB.Usually there used to be 5 GB of free space.Recently something keeps eating up the space.Within few seconds all the space are gone.Made some space and within few secs it is back to 0.Ran disk clean and made around 10 GB space but
again something keeps eating it and eventually within few hrs it will end up in 0.Now this is happening in the Master server of the RGC and all the mails are piling up creating hugh impact for us.
What is eating up the space.Log and DB are not in C drive,.SMTP logs are not very old ones.No mails in the BAD MAIL folder as well.
How to find out who is the culprit?

Hi
What is filling your C: drive up?
Move the pagefile?

Do you have volume shadow copy enabled on this volume? Disable it if so.
IIS logs can grow quickly (I usually move these to another volume for the default & all virtual websites & set up a batch file to purge it daily)
You might invest in TreeSizePro from JAM software, which I prefer over all other disk/drive usage applications. There's a free eval. It's awesome.Lanwench [MVP - Exchange] ** Do not fold, spindle or mutilate. Fill in the box completely and erase any stray marks. Use only a #2 pencil.
